regrets tho not of abdication. In the
absence of official text it is commented
that there is a necessity of clearly de
fining tho position of tho retired emper
or in order to provent oven an indirect
meddling with the administration. It
is also pointed out that anyhow tho
change of government was caused by
tho initiative of tho Korean government
in which the Japanese had no concern
whatever and that it cannot bo con
sidered a finnl solution of Tho Hague
incident. It is oxpected that Foreign
Minister llaynshi will effect a definite
arrangement with the Korenn govorn

say that general calm prevails. Jap
anese troops have been called out and

LEARN CAUSE OF
Board of Investigation Says
Explosion Was Effect of a
Delayed Flare-back
By Associate! Pre9s.
WASHINGTON, July 19. By elimin
ation the naval board which has been
investigating tho accident whereby ten
men in the turret of tho battleship Geor
gia lost their lives, has arrived at the
conclusion that a "delayed Hare-back"
caused tho catastrophe. In ono sense,
tho verdict is received with a distinct
sense of relief by naval officers, becauso
it showed that they have no new element
of danger to contend with.
Thoy have had experience with
"flare-backs" before and thought they
knew how to deal with them.
A "delayed flare-back" is caused by
the closing off too soon of the blast of
compressed air which is supposed to ex
pel from the bgro of tho gun the tin
burned gases and fragments of smoul
dering powder which might bo left from
tho last discharge. After tho terrible
accident in the Missouri's turret three
years ago resulting in a loss of thirty
lives the ordnance bureau caused to bo
fitted to tho breech of each of tho great
guns an air blast apparatus to expel by
compressed air tho gas or cloth that
might remain in the bore of the gun.
So fur this has worked well and thero
have been no flaro-backs sinco tho dc
vico wns installed. In tho case of the
Georgia's eight-inch guns what hap
pened was this:
Tho breech of tho gun is turned
open and tho air blast turned in at a
pressure of ono hundred pounds to tho
square inch. This is sufficient for all
ordinary purposes with tho important
qualification that it should bo continued
long enough to drive tho last remnant of
gas or cloth out of tho bore. In this
caso tho pieces of smouldering cloths
which were driven along tho bore had
not reached tho end of tho muzzle whon
the blast was turned off and the cur
rent of air from tho outsido carried
the burning fragments back through
the open breech into tho chnrgo of
powder which was in tho arms of tho
loader.
WASHINGTON, July 19. A tele
gram watt receivod at tho navy depart
ment this afternoon from Admiral
Thomas, commanding tho second divi
sion of tho Atlantic fleet that gives tho
conclusions of tho board of investiga
tion which investigated tho causo of
the accident on tho battleship Georgia,
by which ten men lost tboir lives. Tho
board finds that the charge of powder
was ignitt'd by a dolaycd ilaro-back,
which was apparently caused by tho
shutting off of tho air blast too soon
with a light wind blowing into tho
muzzle of tho gun.
Tho conclusions of tho board aro sum
marized as follows:
Tho chnrgo was not ignited .by a
blown electrical fuse or a short circuit,
not by an clcctricnl spark from any
electrical device in tho turrct. Tho
chargo wns not ignited by a pcrcus
sionnl or frictional spark. Tho chargo
was not ignited by a spark or cinder
falling into tho turret from, tho outsido.
Tho chnrgo was not ignited ns tho re
sult of any condition duo to the deter
ioration of tho powder.

SHOWN SAYS WOOD
Important Decision te Made
Against Defense of Haywood
and Arguments Begin,
HAWLEY OPENS FOR
THE STATE OF IDAHO
Denounces Federation Leaders
and Says that Orchard's
Story Was Proven to Be
True Will Continue Today.
By Associated PrehS.
BOISE, Idaho, July 19. The field for
argumont for tho prosecution and de
fense of tho Unywod caso has been
limited by Judge Wood, who in a deci
sion handed today removed from tho
consideration of tho jury all evidence
bearing on tho alleged conspiracy by
the mine owners and others against the
Western Federation.
Judgo Wood decided that tho dofenso
had mndo no legal connection of tho
Mine onjicrs association, the Citizens
Alliance of Colorado and tho Finkerton
agency as a foundation for the evidence
introduced by tho dofenso to show that
the charge against Haywood and his
co-defendants is tho outcom-i of a con
spiracy to extorminato tho Fcdciation.
Hawloy Talk3 Long Timo
Immediately following the announce
ment of tho decision argument com
menced. Judgo Ha wlcyr leading counsel
for the Btate, spoko for two hours and
fifteen minutes of the afternoon scs
sion, the morning session having been
adjourned to enable tho judgo to pre
pare his decision.
Mrjjllawley, who has been ill for
aovcral dajs, commenced his addrebs in
a voice almost inaudible to anyoao ex
cept the jury. Warming to his subject
his voice lost all traco of weakness.
His address after tho opening state
ment in which he explained that ho
had "none of the grace of words that
constitute an orator," was at times
eloquontly impassioned, but withal a
plain analysis of the evidence. Ho char
acterized the caso as "the most import
ant over given a jury in tho United
Slates." and urged the jury to a seri
ous consideration of the responsibility
placed npon them.
Plays Defendant
His denunciation of tho defendant
and of the co-conspirators as "tho
worst band of criminals that ever in
fested any section of this country"
was forceful and his eulogy of Stcunen
berg eloquent in the extreme. Mr.
ilawley described Orchard's story as
truthful not only because of the manner
in which it was told, but becauso it
had been corroborated in every import
ant detail.
Counsel for tho defenso repeatedly in
terrupted Mr. Ilawley with protests and
objections, but these seemed only to stir
him to greater effort.
Mr. Hawloy concluded tho afternoon
with the remark that tho state had
shown enough to convict and that any
juryman Jiot willing to convict on tho
evidence connecting tho conspirator
with tho blowing up of tho Bunker 1IU1
and Spllivan concentrator in 1899 and
the explosion at the Vindicator mine in
1903 alone, "sought only to rid him
self of an unpleasant duty of his
state." ,
Mr. Hawloy will continuo his argu
ment tomorrow. Judgo Wood wns no
tified that tho defenso expects argument
for their side to commoncoon Monday.

SAN VRANCISCO, Cab, July 19.
Arguments by opposing counsel in the

ovidenco of "similar offenses" of the
testimony of ten supervisors that they
accepted bribes from T. V. Ilalsoy to
vote against an ordinauco granting a
competitive franchifo to tho Homo Tel
ephone company, eventuated this after
noon in a decision by Judge Lawier, the
effect of which is almost wholly in
favor of tho prosecution.
Tho judge ruled that it is proper to
admit tho evidence referred to as con
stituting proof of a general conspiracy
on tho part of Glnss as vice president
and general manager of, the Pacific
States company to bribe a certain mem
ber of the supervisors to defeat the
ordinance; that tho prosecution is en
titled to show by such evidence the
crilniiial motive of tho defendant Glass
in carrying out alleged conspiracy.

that no prisoner shall bo allowed to

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., July 19.
After being out.just a month the strike
of telegraph operators in tho Oakland
and San Francisco olficcs of tho West
ern Union and Postal companies was
settled today. The operators almost
unanimously voted to return to work
under the same conditions and salaries
as prevailed when they went on strike
and to arbitrate their grievances and
differences as provided for in the com
promise offer contained in tho letter
from Colonel R. C. Clowry of Juno 20.
By tho terms of tho agreement signed
by I. N. Miller, assistant general super
intendent of the Western Union, L. F.
Storrcr, general superintendent of tho
Postal, and National President S. J.

and the question of increased wages
will bo taken up after the resumption
of work.

The employees of each company will
appoint a representative, the company
one, and the two to sclccfa third, who
will constitute an arbitration commit
tee. Iu the event of failing to agree
on a third arbitrator the latter is to be

About 250 operators who are involved

Small toilay sent the following tele
gram to General Secretary and Treas
urer Wesley Russell at Chicago:
Quit Striko Talk
"Communicate promptly with all lo
cal officers and say that the settlement
of the San Francisco trouble is entirely
satisfactory to us and urge them to
caution members against further strike
talk. Under tho terms of tho New
York Clowry-Neill agreement and the
San Francisco agreement we can adjust
any grievances that exist. I will show
this statement to the members along
these lines when I return to Chicago.
I have confidence in the good judgment
of our members and appreciate their
confidence in their general officers.
President Small:
"The terms of settlement are entirely
satisfactory to the telegraphers.
Don't Want Contract
"Wo wero not fighting for tho sign
ing of a union contract. All we desired
was tho acknowledgment of our right
to organize and the privilege of adjust
ing grievances through committees of
employees. Tins we havo secured.
"Tho settlement of the strike has a
far-renching significance. It will put
a quietus on strike talk throughout the
country.
"The vote of the members present at
today 's meeting was 103 in favor of ac
cepting and 4 for rejection of tho com
promise proposition. It is a happy co
incidence that the strike ended just
twenty-four years after tho date on
which tho biggest telegraphers' striko
in history was' called."
